Are you looking for a cheap private and affordable flights to Lake Turkana Kenya? Book a private charter and fly direct to Lake Turkana. Lake Turkana is Kenya's Wild Northern frontier and combines the Mathew's Range, Chalbi Desert, Laikipia and a short visit to Lake Turkana. Scenic flights to Lake Turkana (Jade Sea) for fishing, visit to the 'Cradle of Mankind' at Koobi Fora, and Oasis Lodge (pre booking required). Kenya’s North is desert country- hot, parched and broken by volcanic activity, where ancient blackened lava flows and endless thorn trees stretch from horizon to horizon. Getting to Turkana overland is no mean feat. While it is possible to fly to the Lake in a Chartered aircraft (and indeed flying is recommended for the furthest Northern reaches) it must be said that flying to Turkana somewhat distills the adventure. However, the flight itself is quite an experience, taking in wonderful vistas across the Suguta Valley and providing a bird’s eye view of the Lake itself. Loiyangalani is a good base for exploring- either by boat to South Island National Park, or by climbing nearby Mount Kulal- a challenging climb which needs to be undertaken with care. El Molo Bay is home to Kenya’s smallest tribe, the El Molo whose numbers have dwindled through intermarriage and linguistic and cultural absorption into the Turkana and Samburu communities.
